Best-selling author Jon Acuff speaks on passions and purpose

December 05, 2012 | Liberty University News Service

National best-selling author, speaker, and blogger Jon Acuff talked about what it means to “serve a wildcard God” at Liberty University’s last full Convocation of the year Monday. Liberty will hold its annual Christmas Convocation Thursday.

Acuff said as he traveled across the country speaking at several colleges, he noticed a trend among college students who try and separate their passions from the work that God has called them to do.

He encouraged students to use their gifts for God’s glory rather than assuming that they don’t go together.
